barack obama was in reverend white's pews and considered him a mentor and the only exception was sean hannity who had him on to talk about the black value system that basically says that the way any blacks who achieve economic success are being bought off by the capitalist system and are to be shunned. but in my stories, i reported for the first time on reverend white's sermons, saying that the government created aids to kill off blacks, that israel is a racist country, that the government created killers to kill off minorities throughout the world, et cetera, et cetera. and also that the same reverend white gave awards to farrah kahn for lifetime achievement. who picked up those stories? nobody. nobody touched it. i mentioned the stories to a cnn rerter at a party and she had not seen the stories and she said that's amazing. of course, i could never run a story like that. i would be accused of being bias against barack obama by my network. finally, after sending the stories to friends i know in mainstream media, tv networks and newspapers, after about two months, i did a "wall street journal

we had -- you could argue we had a harder time because we didn't have rush limbaugh or fox news or hannity or the internet. there was actually probably greater net monopoly by abc, nbc, cbs, "new york times" in that era than there is today. i have two practical pieces of advice for you. the first is sheer repetition. i mean, if you took all e-mail addresses in this room, collectively you probably represent 60 or 100 or 200,000 people. you would be startled how many people you can connect with. you become the equivalent of a newspaper. what reagan did that was brilliant, he developed very specific ideas. the reason i talk about a 50% reduction in social security and medicare tax is you can go back home and every person who works can calculate how much they would take home next week with that kind of a tax cut and now it begins to be personal and it is not nbc news or "new york times." it is personal. if i contrast competing with china, which has zero capital gains, why don't we have zero capital gains? every investor and capitalist in america can calculate what zero capital gains would be w

yesterday i was listening to sean hannity. he was having her on as his guest to talk about how in the health-care bill she was on as the bipartisan witness for the bill. that is why you have some misinformation being posted around, and i forgot where i read this, but some of your viewers will remember one example of that misinformation is that in the town halls you keep hearing people listening to talk radio, talking about section 29. it turns out there is no section 29 of the bill. they also start -- there is a little game of telephone going on. host: mike allen, his piece this morning in thepolitico.com. we want to hear from you, as mike allen indicated in "usa today" reporting, the focus of the latest airwave campaign in 21 states on health care. we begin with alberta, on the democrats' line. good morning, welcome to "washington journal." caller: good morning. host: please go ahead. caller: my concern is that there are many doctors out there who know the scam, know how to get super rich, and why are they doing that? to beco
